Table Handling

Many screens of the cognitix Threat Defender user interface contain tables.

You can filter tables using the filter field above the respective table. Type a search string in the input field and click SEARCH. Threat Defender then only displays the matching table entries. Filters are case-insensitive. To remove the filter and display all table entries, click next to the input field.

You can sort most tables by one of the table columns in ascending or descending order. To do so, click the header in the desired table column. An or icon indicates the sort order. Click the header again to reverse the sort order.
